Item Description

Here's the third issue of PRINCE NAMOR'S own title: SUB-MARINER #3 from summer in the tumultuous year of 1968. I have such fond memories of poring over this issue on my lunch breaks from my summer lifeguarding job. Being near water all day really made NAMOR relatable for me!

As told by Master Ret-Con Genius Roy Thomas, this issue continues the story from #2 and in "On a Clear Day You Can See... the Leviathan!", the Plant Man unleashes his monster Leviathan on England. TRITON and NAMOR escape from the Plant Man's trap, but are bound together and do their best to contain the Leviathan. They destroy it and foil the Plant Man's scheme. Namor resumes his quest for his arch-enemy Destiny.

John Buscema powerfully depicts the action of NAMOR and TRITON'S struggles, with an inking assist from Frank Giacoia.

This is a well-preserved copy of SUB-MARINER #3 with a strong binding and minimal toning of its 53-year old pages! There are very minor faults with the cover: very small, almost unnoticeable dimples and stress lines. It still has great eye-appeal and that leads us to grading this a 6.5 VF-. The Overstreet Guide feels $32 is appropriate -- we feel $26 plus our L•O•W shipping is even MORE appropriate! ••• And remember - there is no further postage charge if you buy additional items, so load up on some of our other Silver Age Marvels, if that's your thing!
